I have finally found the cause of the relentless chronic pain and fatigue I have experienced since July of 2009. Lyme Disease.

A FREAKY New Symptom

Teeth kinda freak me out. I'll admit that right up front. The thought of losing a tooth or teeth gives me the willie nelsons BIG TIME!

That said, when I woke up Saturday morning to my bottom gums looking very different...I got so scared! It looked like my gums had completely receded over night. They were really low and had white patches right below the teeth. They bleed super easily now, too. I'd take a picture but I'm so embarrassed by these kind of things....

Anyway. I've felt pretty icky all week. My temp was at around 100 for about 5 days in a row. I had the pink-eye type problem for about 3 days. My skin has been extra itchy and I've had several episodes of hives. And now this gross new symptom. I just love this mystery bug! (NOT!)

Heading to the dentist now. Will update when I return. Wish me luck!!!!

Has anyone done any ana testing on you? A stand alone RA? Sed rate or cpk testing? Vit deficiency? ANYTHING???? Sjogrens? Gosh there is so much they could be doing for you right now. I'm baffled with all the information you have they are not checking avenues with you.

The itching and hives could be an allergic reaction to something like a medication. And could be you have an infection going on of some sort if you have a compromised immune system from the meds. Hope you get some answers and soon (((HUGS))).

Invisible, but DEFINITELY there...

Looking For Answers

This blog is an attempt, on my part, to find answers about what is causing my health problems. I am going to keep track of symptoms, triggers, etc. in hopes that maybe something will show up as the culprit. I hate having pain every day of my life. I hate fatigue. I hate canker sores on my tongue that hurt SO badly! I hate migraines. I hate not feeling well enough to go out and do things.

I want my life back!

Please follow me and feel free to say "hi" anytime! I look forward to meeting others who have been where I am and those that haven't as well.
